Every time that song comes on I reach out with one finger and turn the radio off. Sam laughs and points out I've never turned off a fifties-era song before and I raise my eyebrows at him.
That's George Thorogood.
He covered the Bo Diddley song. My bad. It came out in the fifties.
Wow. Must have had a whole different sentiment.
Name some of your loves today.
Ginger kombucha, tattoo flash, power ballads, TED talks, painting tutorials-
People, Bridget.
Not George then. Or Bo.
Go on.
Lochlan. Ben. You.
You didn't say Ja-
I reach out and turn the radio back up, all the way. Forever Young by Alphaville is playing now. I wonder if anyone's ever covered it. I don't know if I can get through it. Hits too hard. Like every other eighties ballad I come across, which is why I was listening to this station (80s on 8) in the first place. If Lochlan and I hadn't imploded before I even grew into adulthood that first time around things would have been so incredibly different right now.
